The AILA Salons
AILA NSW Group is proposing an informal after work monthly gathering of Landscape Architects to catch up and discuss projects, inspiration and practice.
Each Salon will be held at a different Studio/Office of our Institute members. This could be design studios, Government offices or other places of practice .
The idea is to discuss and interrogate design practice in a collaborative way, to share ideas and to elevate discussion about what it is we do.
3 projects will be presented in an informal pin up situation.
